Job description

LiveKit is building the infrastructure layer for the voice-driven era of computing. Our platform gives developers everything they need to build, test, deploy, scale, and observe agents in production. Founded in 2021, LiveKit powers voice AI applications for OpenAI, xAI, Salesforce, Coursera, Spotify, and thousands of others, collectively facilitating billions of calls each year.

You'll thrive at LiveKit if you:

  • obsess with crafting code that is fast, reliable and practical for the problem

  • are known as the go-to person for tackling tough technical problems

  • work hard and can build and ship fast

  • can clearly explain complex technical concepts to others

  • are a fast learner, frequently picking up new languages and tools

The best way to impress us is with thoughtful Issues and/or PRs on our Github repos 😊

About This Role:

We're looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer to help build the dashboard and developer experience that thousands of companies use to build, deploy, and observe their voice AI applications. Our frontend team is small, high-impact, and deeply technical. Our stack is modern and ambitious: React with Server Components, Next.js, Vercel, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, and a protobuf based API layer with auto-generated type-safe clients. You'll own significant product surfaces: the Cloud Dashboard, Session Analytics, Agent Insights, Billing, Account Management and more, with dozens of new product features in active development. You'll have real autonomy and direct influence on the developer experience. If you want to work at the intersection of great UI engineering and cutting-edge AI infrastructure, this is the role.

What You'll Do:

  • Build and evolve LiveKit Cloud's Dashboard, the primary interface developers use to create, deploy, monitor, and debug their voice AI agents

  • Own major product surfaces across the Cloud Dashboard, Session Analytics, Agent Insights, deployment workflows, and dozens of new highly-demanded features in active development

  • Work across the full React component lifecycle, from design system primitives to complex, stateful application views with real-time data

  • Integrate deeply with backend services through our gRPC-web / Connect Query layer, working with auto-generated protobuf clients for 100+ service APIs

  • Contribute to and extend our shared design system and component library used across multiple LiveKit web properties

  • Integrate with third-party services and APIs to extend platform capabilities across billing, analytics, authentication, and more

  • Work cross-functionally with Product Managers, Product Designers, Executives, and GTM teams to translate user needs into polished product experiences

Who You Are:

  • You have deep experience building production web applications with React and Next.js (App Router, Server Components, server actions)

  • You write clean, type-safe TypeScript and have strong opinions about component architecture, state management, and data fetching patterns

  • You're product-minded and thrive in a complex product with many interconnected surfaces. You think about user workflows and edge cases holistically, not just individual components

  • You have experience building or contributing to design systems

  • You care about performance, accessibility, and polish, and you ship with attention to detail

  • You've worked with real-time or data-heavy UIs and understand the challenges of rendering dynamic, streaming content

  • You thrive on a small team where you own large surface areas and ship with high autonomy

    • Nice to have: Experience with Go, gRPC, or protocol buffers, with the ability to unblock yourself by making straightforward backend enhancements when needed

We offer

  • An opportunity to build something truly impactful to the world

  • Contribute to open source alongside world-class engineers

  • Competitive salary and equity package

  • Health, dental, and vision benefits

  • Flexible vacation policy
